Default Quick question I'm sure one of you could answer...

I'm looking into some used snow tires to use for this season. I've seen some sets for sale on 13" rims. Can 13"s fit on my car? I'd like to jump on a great deal if they can fit, I just don't know if the rims will clear the brake calipers or not(seems close).

I think CRXs have 14" wheels. I think they would probably fit.

Not on the Si. The HF's came with 9 inch rotors and smaller calipers. the Si came with 9.5 inch rotors and bigger calipers. Just stick with a 14" steelie. Maybe a 185 60 14 or even a 175 65 14 for snows.

I'd have to dig through my garage but I think I may have some stock rims from a CRX HF in there...
